GlobeDrop.org is a social enterprise that allows travellers to contribute to social welfare establishments and NGOs around the world while travelling. They offer a free web and mobile application that can easily connect travellers to verified social organisations - no middle man required.

They carry the motto, “Travel Meaningfully”, which concisely describes what GlobeDrop.org and our trip from Cusco to Niagara Falls is about. In their own way, they promote responsible travelling by locally buying in-kind donations to help the community livelihood. Using the GlobeDrop application can also create social awareness through immersion when travellers buy goods to be turned to in-kind donations in their chosen local market communities.

They have multiple goals to accommodate the expansion of their organisation and their reach throughout the world.

To help social organisations gain visibility around the world by being registered and listed on GlobeDrop.org

To facilitate GlobeDropper donations to their chosen welfare establishment. They aim to keep contact to a respectful minimum so as not to disrupt the daily work of the organisation. To minimise wasting time, the drop-off and in-kind receipt is quick and efficient

To promote responsible travel

To create a platform that promotes easy and transparent monitoring, thereby ensuring 100% of the in-kind donation is sent to the organisation.

All great goals in our book, which is why we choose to partner with GlobeDrop on our trip.
